A temperature control assembly controls the temperature of functional parts of a printing machine. The temperature control assembly comprises a plurality of assembly-side sub-circuits, the temperature of which is to be individually controlled, each sub-circuit having a temperature-control fluid outlet and a temperature-control fluid inlet, on each of which, in order to form a respective temperature control circuit, one or more functional parts can be connected as loads of a temperature-controlling external temperature control sub-circuit by the use of releasable connections, and which, on the feed side of the temperature control thereof, are or can be thermally and fluidically coupled, via respective removal points, to a common feed line, and on the return side, via each return point, to a common fluid return. The temperature control assembly is configured as a structurally independent assembly comprising the assembly-side temperature control circuits thereof and the feed and return, and a temperature control device that controls the temperature of the temperature control fluid supplied to the feed, one of on and in a single-component or in a multi-component frame of the temperature control assembly. The temperature control device is provided in a fluid stream between the last return point and the first removal point. A line section of the feed line, which extends at least over the length from the first removal point to the last downward removal point of the assembly-side temperature control circuit, has an average line cross-section which is one of greater than a multiple of the average line cross-section of a supply line section arranged in the feed downstream of the temperature control device and arranged upstream of the line section, and which is greater than a multiple of a line a cross-section upstream of each of the largest return point.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a printing apparatus that satisfactorily sucks and recovers a printhead is provided. A printing apparatus that includes a transfer member, and the first and second printheads has the following arrangement. The apparatus includes the first and second suction units which suck a plurality of nozzles of the first and second printheads, a common negative-pressure generation unit which generates a negative-pressure for suction by these suction units, and a moving unit which moves these suction units from one end to the other end of each printhead. Then, the moving unit moves the first and second suction units so as to pass through concave gaps with respect to ink discharge surfaces of the first and second printheads corresponding to the first and second suction units at different timings.

A thermal roller (1) includes: a cylindrical body (2) extending along a longitudinal direction (X-X), the cylindrical body (2) including at least one inner tubular element (3) and at least one outer tubular element (4) that is concentrically arranged around the inner tubular element (3), the inner tubular element (3) includes an outer diameter d and the outer tubular element 4 includes an inner diameter D, being D>d; two hubs (6), each arranged at one end of the cylindrical body (2); at least one heat-exchange chamber (10) realized between the inner tubular element (3) and the outer tubular element (4). The roller includes: a coating layer (11) for the inner tubular element (3) made of plastics, and at least one helical channel (13) between the coating layer (11) and the outer tubular element (4). The helical channel (13) is realized at least partially in the coating layer (11).

The disclosure relates to a coating apparatus for applying a monolayer layer of particles to a receiving surface. The apparatus comprises a pressurized air source, an application chamber partially bounded by the receiving surface into which an air stream is delivered by the air source, an air return path for returning air from the application chamber to an intake of the air source to form an air circulation loop, and a dosing device for introducing particles to be coated onto the receiving surface into the air circulation loop, a particle deflector being positioned in the path of the air stream to break up agglomerated particles carried by the air stream prior to coating the receiving surface with the particles. A method of applying a layer of particles is also provided, as well as printing systems benefiting from the present coating apparatus.
